Für eine Nacht passabel.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war schön ruhig und geräumig.

Cons:

Das Bad sollte dringend gereinigt werden und ist Sanierungsbedüftig. Der Fußboden hat geklebt und der Paperrollenhalter war nur notdürftig fest.
Heizungen waren rostig und die Klobürste war ohne Worte.

Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt und für den Preis absolut empfehlenswert, aber die Gegend ist recht laut
Pros:

Freundlich, gute Ausstattung und für den Preis völlig ok alles in allem

Cons:

Die Gegend, wenn man mit offenen Fenster schlafen möchte dann ist es einfach nur laut, vor dem Fenster in der Nacht viele Menschen, Geschrei usw..

Einfache preiswerte Unterkunft
Pros:

Freundliches Personal

Cons:

Mit Rollstuhl schwierig weil schon am Eingang eine Stufe ist. Das Zimmer ist für Rollis sehr gut auch die Dusche. Man muss nur erst bis zum Zimmer kommen.
Im Bad riecht es sehr unangenehm.

Cons:

На фотках всё выглядит совсем иначе. Звукоизоляции нет, утром все стукают дверьми и как слоны прыгают сверху. Пол грязный, спустя два похода от стола к кровати в белых носках они были черными и к ним прилипла грязь. Постельное белье грязное в какие-то пятнах. Подушки ужасно неудобные, от подушек только название осталось, наполнения в них нет почти что. Чтоб хоть как-то поспать пришлось слаживать подушку в 2-4 раза. Отель находится в не очень приятном районе. Много алкашей, бомжей и наркоманов. В каждом углу воняет.
От города впечатления невероятные, от отеля за такие деньги ужасные.
